Obsessed with Scrubs

Nurses Uniform/Gear

Published

OK...I am most definitely a very girly glam girl. I love having very neat and form fitting scrubs. Which can get tedious seeing that I'm 5'13" :yes: (just go with it)! Its an obsession that developed after I bought some great scrubs and was no longer pulling and tugging at the back of pants at work (after all I'm not a plummer!). Any who, I notice that I will find myself staring at other people's scrubs (when the scrubs are cute of course) trying to pin the designer. I sometimes even wear scrubs on my off days. Am I just alone and weird in this? Or anyone else out there slowly developing an obsession. If so, what are your go to scrubs or coats. Mine thus far, are Greys Anatomy, Med Couture, and Heartsoul Heartbreaker line.

I like well fitted, stretchy scrubs with technical fabric. No boxy boring ones for me! I like Cherokee Infinity and Urbane Ultimate.

I'm out. Despite being tall and thin I had no interest in anything form fitting or figure flattering when I as working the floor. Inner City Scrub Outlet for $9.99 each piece was the best I could muster. I did love wearing them though mostly for the huge pockets.

You should try smitten. I love those. I'm tall also but mostly stick with greys anatomy because I require cargo pockets for my trauma shears. I really wish there were more options for tall women. It gets frustrating because I see a lot of cute stuff but frequently they aren't in tall sizes. I also have issues with a lot of scrub tops because I feel like they aren't very long and they barely cover to my pants.

I love scrubs but not form fitting. I like them loose and comfortable. Right now I like the Koi Women's Tall Morgan Ultra Comfy Yoga-Style Scrub pants.[h=1][/h]

Check out Sapphire Scrubs! They are really cute and they even have slimfit pants. I've had mine about 8 months or so and they're holding up great.

I love the Butter Soft line by Uniform Advantage. I look for figure flattering scrubs that aren't super fitted, and they fit the bill nicely. They're also super comfy, hold up well, and come in tall sizes.

Another tall & skinny here but don't like tight or form fitting. Every facility I have worked at though had color coded uniforms. Only so much originality with all Royal Blue etc.

Nope. I buy the most loose-fitting, baggy scrubs that will remain in place without my assistance. Although I've gained a few pounds (weight-loss plan in full effect;)), I kept these selections even when I was 138 pounds 4 years ago.

I have no choice but to look at the human body of a patient. I have no desire to have them gawking at mine.

As for wearing scrubs on my days off, it's absolutely the last outfit I want to see off-the-clock.

Well I don't wear my scrubs form fitting with the intention of my patients to look at my body, I wear them that way, because I work a lot and I want to look good for myself. When I look good I feel good. Baggy clothes are comfortable but I am above 6 feet on me baggy clothes make me look lanky and sloppy. :(

Anything yoga..usually screams form fitting and comfortable to me so I was pleasantly surprised to see scrubs that came like this...but very perplexed by your comment. The Koi Women's Tall Morgan Ultra Comfy Yoga-Style Scrub pants seem form fitting to me.
